Subscriber Management MIB IPCDN Working Group November 2002 Wilson Sawyer/ARRIS
Draft -07 Rationale • Response to MIB doctor review in preparation for submission as Proposed Standard RFC • Attempts to answer most of the concerns identified by Bert Wijnen. Review is still ongoing. Wilson Sawyer/ARRIS
What changed for -07 • Clarified population of entries which augment docsIfCmtsCmStatusEntry: values set at Registration; meaningless if not registered. • RFC 3291 convention for IP addresses replaces RFC 2851 (in particular, see InetPortNumber convention for TCP/UDP ports) • Root = { mib-2 XX } - not implementable until RFC Wilson Sawyer/ARRIS
What changed for -07 (cont) • StorageType - minimally mandates nonVolatile for filters. (also DEFVAL=nonVolatile) • Index ranges widened (1024->2147483647) but compliance requirement is 16 addresses, 20 filters, 30 groups. • Numerous minor touchups. Wilson Sawyer/ARRIS
Going Forward • Mib Dr.’s concern about possible duplication with RFC 2669 - can filters and CPE address control use a common MIB? (editor thinks no, but WG input is welcomed) • Possible concern about stated lack of support for IPv6. • Need WG input on changes and “clarifications”. (editor’s notion of “clarification” may not match the expectation of the WG) • CableLabs compliance stays at the -02 draft until this is issued as RFC. Wilson Sawyer/ARRIS
